Kamala Harris suffers bumpy baptism over immigration on first foreign trip

Vice-president's get tough' stance on corruption overshadowed by backlash over do not come' message to migrants

Kamala Harris has returned to the US from her first foreign trip and big test since becoming vice-president - and taking over the hot-potato issue of immigration - battered by criticism over her harsh Do not come" message to desperate migrants and her testy ambivalence over visiting the US-Mexico border.

Harris arrived back on US soil from a three-day trip to Guatemala and Mexico just as Joe Biden flew out to the UK on Wednesday on his first overseas venture since winning the White House.
